TL;DRAnthropic launched Claude Tag, an always-on Slack AI that follows conversations, learns context, and proactively jumps in to flag updates and tasks.
Anthropic is launching Claude Tag in research preview, an “always-on Claude” that lives inside Slack and acts as a persistent AI teammate. The feature lets users tag @Claude to get insights in conversations and assign tasks. It is available to Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers starting today.
Claude Tag is an evolution of Anthropic’s existing Slack integrations, which already let users direct-message Claude or tag it in channels for on-demand help. Claude Code in Slack can also route coding tasks from channel mentions to full coding sessions on the web, posting updates back into the thread. But Claude Tag adds a layer of persistent context and memory that the previous tools could not maintain.
“As Claude follows along with its channel, it learns ever more about the work,” Anthropic said in a statement. Claude can also automatically gather facts from elsewhere in the organisation if granted permission to read other channels. The result is an AI that accumulates institutional knowledge over time rather than starting from scratch with every interaction.
